Unknown SIM status???

I got problem with my device.
Every time I insert a sim card it show Unknown SIM status.
I already try several unlocking tools but still the same.
Any body have an idea?
Thanks...

i would try another simcard as some are just incompatible

I did bro... but still the same

uch...
I don't think it's locking situation... IMHO it's something with your hardware smart-chip reader...
Did you flash it recently?

Maybe... So is there any hope for my problem??

guess you could try upgrading it to a diff rom
and or radiostack

How can I upgrade the radio stack?
Can u tell me?

like you upgrade the normal rom but having the
"Radio_.nbf" of your choice in the dir with the flash tool
rather then the "nk.nbf"

I already upgrade it to version 1.19...
but nothing change. Any other way??

i had the same problem with my htc vox.
wouldn't recognize any sim card i put in. i swapped parts and everything, and it still would work, so i just give it to my uncle.

try changing the rom? different sim card? different radio?

Invalid missing SIM card

Hello.
I am a complete newbie. Own 8125 CIngular. Worked fine, I switched to T-mobile, unlocked it with lockiwiz 3a (thanks, machinagod). It worked great until I for some reasons had to pull the battery out. It quit recognizing sim in ther - any sim - old Att or new TM. IT is G3 phone, had 2.25 IPL/SPL. I flashed to TM 2.26 (per all the guides here), gsm 02.25.11, Everything loads up great except for the phone part - It's still "missing or invalid sim" What do I do? Please, help Thanks a lot in advance

did you try following the unlock procedure again?

try to move sim a little bit.. maybe it's displaced?
That what happened to me.
Good luck!

To echo the post above mine, I had that same problem at one point, and just taking the SIM card out and putting it back in solved the problem.

I faced a similar problem when I went to another country and used a local sim of that country. I kept putting the phone in 'airplane mode' for 5 minutes and when got that 'airline mode' off, it worked. Cumbursome but it worked.

Need Help: the sim card is missing

Hi,
i've new problem with my S300+!
Yesterday my phone worked well, today I see the following message:
"The SIM card is missing. You can still make emergency calls if your service provider supports it".
I tried to switch the sim card to another phone and the sim works correctly, then i tried to put another TIM sim card on the s300+ and the message is showing too.
What's happened?
Originally the s300+ was SIM locked for SFR sim. But when i bought it, it was unlocked to sim free.
Two weeks ago i've upgraded the radio rom to latest version.
Reading the other device's forum, i've saw that problem may be an hardware problem. How can check if the problem is caused by hardware ?
Can I try to re-unlock the phone? or it is effectless?
Thanks in Advance!

can you try a SFR sim in the phone?
see if it works on that sim.
do you know the person you got the phone from?
how was the phone unlocked?
you could try unlocking the phone again.

I can't try a sfr sim!
I'm in Italy and I've bought the phone in France.
I don't kown the person that have sell the phone, and i don't kown ho the phone was unlocked.
I know that the phone works well for 3 weeks and then not!
I 'm tring to reunlock the phone.

if you do a search on this forum you will find the files needed to sim unlock your phone.
when you have done, may be your phone will be ok again.
On the down side to that may be the person that sold you the phone has reported it lost or stolen and its been blocked/locked if that is the case i dont know what you can do.

I have just unlock the phone, but nothing is changed!!!!
I've also checked my imei on this site:
http://www.amta.org.au/default.asp?Page=405
and it not seems reported as lost or stolen...

I bought a S300+ (SFR Locked) in January 2008 and I unlocked by myself using tools found on this board, it still work fine but with a Vodafone Italy SIM, but sometimes I use a TIM Sim too.
I don't think that your is a lock problem, from the message you get at the powerup sound like an hardware problem but you should try an hardware reset how last option if you didn't it before.

I've made an hard reset, but nothing happens!
Also I've tried to flash a new roms (an italian rom and the original rom), but was not the solution!
I'm not sure where is the problem, because the phone worked well for about 3 weeks, than suddenly shows the missing sim card message....
IS there a site to verify if the imei is blocked? i've try www.ama.org.au
Is There a program or a tool to verify the integrity of hardware, especially for ths sim hardware? or a datasheet of sfr 300+?

I've had the same problem on my trinity and it turned out that I needed a new sim card because the old one burned out after four years of use. This may or may not be your problem.

I solved my problem by inserting a little paper between the SIM and the support lol

artemis after sim unlock "unknown sim card"

Hi, I searched forum but haven't found any solution, recently I had repaired my Artemis and got new motherboard so to get rid of crappy orange software I wanted to change rom, after successful USPL and replacing rom with wm 6.1 (tried 5 by now) I unlocked the phone as it was on forum, tried 4 different sim card's, and still no luck "unknown or missing sim card". Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi mate...you have changed your motherboard?
How, where and how much have you paid it cause I need one too and I'm from Malta....
As for the no sim problem..I think you should try to restore it to factory rom
on the first place, and if it doesn't help, you have to go to IMEI unlock it...
I think it is roughly 20-30 GBP....and you can do it on line.
Hope it helps...

unknown sim error

Hi,
I have a locked Spanish xperia x2. Following the suse update procedure reported in the forum I managed to load the GENERIC_UK_R3AA035_CABS.rar. After alla the cab installation the langauage is finally English but X2 gives me “unknown sim error”. What I am missing? thank and regards

Does the sim card work in a different phone?
Can you get a replacement sim card?
I remember that I had some issues with my phone one morning and I happened to walk by an official T-Mobil store while in downtown Chicago. It turned out that a number of specific, older, sim cards did not work due to an update on the network. So the T-Mobil guy just copied my sim to a new one and i was on my way with a working sim/phone.
One small point to know: I had the sim card for about 8 years. It was still Voice Stream (now T-Mobil). So it was a really old sim.

I have 2 new sim card working perfectly in my old X1. For none of them I have to insert pin code in X1.
In X2 I insert the pin code and then receive the error message. May this be due to the fact X2 was locked?
But shouldn't have been the loading I did of
GENERIC_UK_R3AA035_CABS.rar.
unlocking it?
what am I missing?

to unlock my X2 is GENERIC_UK_R3AA035_CABS.rar enough or should I purchase on the net an unlocking code?
thanks

no, you have done everything right so far. now just do the sues upgrade again and it'll boot the english rom (based on what cabs you downloaded on your phone) and your phone should be working fine. tell me how everything turns out. and good luck

Flashing a different language/rom has NOTHING to do with the fact that your phone is SIM LOCKED. And it will stay sim locked until SIM is UNLOCKED. But not with flashing a language or rom or anything via SEUS.
